“This company state they require your bank details when you receive one of their memberships as a ‘gift’. They claim that this is to enable them to verify your age. There are countless other ways to verifying an individual’s age. The request for my personal bank details is irrelevant for age verification and there are plenty of other universally accepted options- passport, drivers licence. Indeed, some bank allow individuals to open an bank account with a debit card facility under the age of 18. The request for specific bank details arguably falls outside GDPR regulations and the limitation principle. I have asked them to confirm if there is another way to verify my ID and to clarify my concerns regarding their insistence and use of my personal data. No one has responded or acknowledged my email. I have sent another chaser and am now, it would seem, left with no option other than to report them to the ICO for data misuse. I suspect that the real reason they request your bank details is so that you can end up enrolled in a subscription and which will inadvertent continue and attract a monthly fee. I expect this is one of the reasons why this company has quickly generated such large revenues. The need for a gift recipient to enter their bank details is not made clear to the person purchasing the gift from the outset and now it does not appear possible to cancel/request a refund. Very concerning and dubious dealings. No response and no option to request a refund. I do hope the ICO consider a fine in the circumstances.”

“I always look forward to being gin-tillated by my new gin & mixers. It’s great to have the magazine & info for making the cocktails... sometimes it’s nice to deviate a little with garnishes & mixers.. we all have different tastebuds so nothing is ever wrong...(well nearly always😉). I’ve never had to return anything to get a refund the quality of the boxes is that good, likewise customer service.... isn’t that telling you something? Plus if you want a break, to give you chance to catch up or other commitments it’s easy to put on hold. Not that you’ll do it for long it’s always exciting to receive a regular box of goodies!”

“I have been a member of the club for nearly a year now, joining not long after lockdown started. I have changed my delivery pattern from monthly to bi-monthly and back to monthly with no issues. We had a bit of a blip when they switched from Royal Mail to Hermes but that was only for a month. The contents of the box are always first rate. I have tried some fantastic gins that I wouldn’t have bought. I also bought the gin advent calendar and mixer boxes and again it was a great way to try a lot of gins that you may not necessarily go out and spend £30-£40 on a full bottle. I can’t fault this product and it brings a little joy into your life when let’s be honest there’s not much to look forward to!”

“We have thoroughly enjoyed our first box from Craft Gin Club! We received a very tasty bottle of gin and a lovely array of mixers, accompaniments and snacks. The box is a real treat, especially in these times when going out to enjoy a drink isn't a possibility. Also, everything inside the box comes packaged neatly and securely. Would highly recommend and very much looking forward to our next box! Thanks CGC!”
